Definitely a fun experience, snorkeling was so good as we seen a huge star fish. 🥰 Next time though we will definitely get a kayak to go further😊 the views are amazing wherever you are on the island. The kids also enjoyed jumping off the big rocks!! Food is good as well!! My 6yr old asked if we could come back every 2 weeks.😂
A fabulous experience on a beautiful sunny day. Our boat captain obliged us by stopping when some whales were sighted, and I believe everyone was able to see and experience this spectacular display. GKI itself was amazingly relaxing - although the shark fin swimming VERY close to shore prevented us from dipping our toes in haha - a fabulous experience and will definitely do it again.
Fabulous day - hiked to Long Beach; swam in crystal clear water; nice included lunch; relaxing ferry transfer on top deck. Highly recommend!
